By Ramzy Baroud For him, Palestinians are nomadic beings who, by mere historical incident, ventured into his biblical land, in which they have no claim or right. When asked why his latest map has […]
By Ramzy Baroud Ben-Gvir’s rush to achieve the religious Zionist agenda contradicts the traditional form of Israeli colonialism, predicated on the ‘incremental genocide’ of Palestinians. Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir vowed, on August […]
By Ramzy Baroud Though for Palestinians, such facts remain devoid of practical meaning, for Israel, the UN position is a major obstacle in the face of its blatant settler colonial project. Departing Israeli Ambassador […]
By Ramzy Baroud By trying to break the will of the Palestinians through torture, humiliation and rape, Israel wants to restore a different kind of deterrence, which it lost on October 7. On October […]
By Ramzy Baroud Even if the Israeli right has lost all faith in Netanyahu, without him as a unifying figure, all is lost, not only the chances of the far-right camp to redeem itself, […]
By Ramzy Baroud When Netanyahu mattered, his speeches often led to wars, or major regional instability. But Netanyahu no longer matters, except for a few US politicians vying for re-election. Great orators in history […]
By Ramzy Baroud Considering the criminal extent to which Israel is willing to go, such desperation could eventually lead to the regional war that Israel has been trying to instigate, even before the Gaza […]
By Ramzy Baroud To further expose western duplicity in Gaza, we must learn to speak with no reservations, no matter the restrictions on the pro-Palestine voice or the censorship on social media. Why are […]
By Ramzy Baroud I find it important to reflect on Gramsci’s understanding of the process of change in society due to the ongoing chaos underway in various western countries. Antonio Gramsci was not a […]
By Ramzy Baroud The Israeli attacks on the UN, all its institutions, but particularly the UN agency responsible for the welfare of Gaza’s refugees (UNRWA), serve a different purpose than that of mere ‘collective […]
By Ramzy Baroud The Israeli war of ‘extermination’ in Gaza, per the words of International Criminal Court Prosecutor Karim Khan, has made the cause of Palestinian freedom a global one. Much has been written […]
By Ramzy Baroud Trump’s politics is abashedly Machiavellian. During his only term in office between 2017 and 2021, he served the role of the American genie, granting Israel’s every wish. Many political analysts believe […]
By Ramzy Baroud The current generation of Gazans is empowered and fearless. Its ongoing resistance is only a reflection of a popular reawakening throughout Palestine. Israel never learns from its mistakes. What Israeli Prime […]
By Ramzy Baroud The story of the potential Israeli civil war is as old as the Israeli state itself, and recent comments by Netanyahu, suggesting otherwise, are yet another false claim by the prime […]
By Ramzy Baroud Nuseirat, like Gaza, is a representation of a culture that cannot be broken, no matter the firepower, or the extent of the massacres. I clearly remember my first day at an […]
By Ramzy Baroud Netanyahu does not seem to have an actual plan for Gaza, neither for now nor after the war. So, he prolongs the war despite the fact that his army is exhausted, […]
By Ramzy Baroud For some in the west, the issue is not just about the Gaza genocide. It is also about the future of the west itself. On June 6, Spain joined South Africa’s […]
By Ramzy Baroud Israel now stands in near-complete isolation, due, in part, to its genocide in Gaza but also to the courage and steadfastness of the Palestinian people, and to the global solidarity with […]
By Ramzy Baroud The Israeli leader is just buying time, though. Israel’s top generals and military experts and analysts know that the war has been lost and that prolonging it will not, in any […]
By Ramzy Baroud The persistence of Palestinians and the massive solidarity they have obtained from countries throughout the Global South, eventually paid off. Even the most optimistic of political analysts did not expect that […]
By Ramzy Baroud Thanks to Palestinian memory, Palestinians are once more united around their understanding of the past, the steadfastness of the present and the hope for a just future. Inadvertently, Israel has pressed […]
By Ramzy Baroud The success, and the sacrifices of Gaza journalists should serve as a model for journalists and journalism around the world. By granting its 2024 World Press Freedom Prize to Palestinian journalists […]
By Ramzy Baroud This reductionist thinking is now being applied to Gaza where every historical reference is intentionally pushed aside. What is taking place in occupied Palestine is not a conflict, but a straightforward […]
By Ramzy Baroud Despite mass arrests, starting in Columbia, and the direct violence against peaceful protesters everywhere, the movement has only grown stronger. The mass protests at dozens of US universities cannot be reduced […]
By Ramzy Baroud As Gaza continues to resist the injustice of the Israeli military occupation and war, the rest of us, concerned about truth, accuracy in reporting and justice for all, should also challenge […]
By Ramzy Baroud It goes without saying that Ben-Gvir, and his threats to topple Netanyahu’s coalition government, have been the main driving force behind the genocide in Gaza. Throughout history, fringe religious Zionist parties […]
By Ramzy Baroud So when Namibia took a strong stance against Israel’s largest military supporter in Europe – Germany – it did so based on Namibia’s total awareness of its history. The distance between Gaza and […]
By Ramzy Baroud The latest killing of the internationals in Gaza was done to serve the same goal: ensuring that no aid distribution mechanism is allowed. Israel described its clearly deliberate killing of seven humanitarian aid […]
By Ramzy Baroud In this scenario, all of Netanyahu’s political shenanigans, which served him well in the past, would fall short from allowing him to return to power. Historically, wars unite Israelis. Not anymore. […]
By Ramzy Baroud Though many of Israel’s traditional allies in the west are openly disowning its behavior in Gaza, weapons from various western and non-western countries continue to flow. Over 9,000 Palestinian women have been killed since […]
